I learned about shapes I never knew about in this book. Sir Cumference has Geo of Metry make tables of various shapes, octagons, rectangles, diamonds, and triangles, and each time the King or the Knights do not like them. The King and the knight do not like the tables they already have, so they give Sir Cumference the job of trying to figure what type of table would give them more room so they don't have to shout across, and you can probably guess what type of table they need by looking at the title. If you enjoy shapes and geometry, this is a book for you. This is the first book and tells you about the family. The illustrations are unique in that they look like pastels and paints, they are not sharp lines, but they illustrate the stories very well. My sisters are 5 and 7 and they enjoy this series a lot as well although it has to be read to them. The family consists of Sir Cumference, the father, his wife Lady Di of Ameter, and their son Radius, who appear in four books, and each of them has a book that focuses on them. The books are about a family around the time of King Arthur.
The Sir Cumference series is written for kids approximately fourth grade on up. He is quoted saying, "I've found out why King Arthur called us all here!" Sir Cumference and Radius agree Vertex should be the heir to the throne.Review: Sir Cumference Series and other math readers by Cindy Neuschwander He appears on the first page of Sir Cumference and the Sword in the Cone. He is the focus of Sir Cumference and the Great Knight of Angleland, in which he becomes a knight after rescuing King Lell and his pair of dragons. He has a friend named Vertex in Sir Cumference and the Sword in the Cone, and plays an important role in both Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi and The Sword in the Cone first by turning his father to a dragon and back, and later assisting Vertex in becoming King. Radius is the son of Di of Ameter and Sir Cumference. In the first book, she came up with all the different shapes of the table (parallelogram, square, etc.) and in Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi, she stayed with Sir Cumference when he turned into a dragon.
He has a wife called Lady Di of Ameter and a son named Radius.ĭi of Ameter is the wife of Sir Cumference.
Sir Cumference is a knight in the kingdom of Camelot. Most of the characters of the book are named after math terms, such as Sir Cumference ( circumference). The books have been studied for their use in mathematics education. Sir Cumference is a series of children's educational books about math by Cindy Neuschwander and Wayne Geehan.
